Overview

OpenH743I-C is an STM32 development board designed for the STM32H743IIT6 microcontroller, consists of the mother board and the MCU core board CoreH743I.

The OpenH743I-C supports further expansion with various optional accessory boards for specific application. The modular and open design makes it the ideal for starting application development with STM32 series microcontrollers.
